Frozen wave pic

I hope the picture shows up or I'm gonna have to find the "how to upload pics thread again. Just thought it was pretty cool

An Ice Wave from the floor of Lake Huron near Mackinaw Island

Amazing pictures up around Mackinac Island!!!
Michigan has had the coldest winter in decades.
Water expands to freeze, and at Mackinaw City the water in Lake Huron
below the surface ice was supercooled. It expanded to breakthrough the
surface ice and froze into this incredible wave.

This wave phenomena occurs in Antarctica, but in Michigan? Yes, it's
been quite a winter!

No i did'nt take the pic, was posted on my FB along with the description of what it is

That really is a cool picture, and I don't want to rain on the parade, but this is a picture taken at the Antarctic base of Dumont D'Urville by Tony
Travouillon in 2002. Here's the site where a lot of these pictures are:

Probably the same place , but not the same pic. definitely not the same pic.

Very nice pictures. However, it may look like a frozen wave, but if you look closely it is a massive block of ice with vertical splits filled with
white ice/snow which makes it look like the over-topping of a wave.
